snowscroll▲21Hey all, I'm Jun. I've always struggled with my doomscrolling habit, and so I spent the last few months building an app to remove short-form, addicting content from all major social media platforms (Instagram, YouTube, X, Facebook, Linkedin, TikTok). The app has the option to further customize (removing home feeds, stories, other subtabs, etc). Launch Video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J7ablpEFt74

Mood▲97Hey HN, I've had this idea stuck in my head ever since I published Year in Pixels [1]. I've been adding a little thing here and there to this app, and now it feels nice enough to share. It's very interesting what daily tracking does to one's mind. While I already have apps to track everything else like sleep, heart rate, etc., I was still missing something to track my mood. The simple act of thinking about how you feel a couple of times a day already changes things. A moment of reflection. I opted to add Astrology, Checks (habits), and other goodies.

Hey HN, I've been having trouble sleeping lately. Tried various white noise apps but most are either paid or cluttered with ads. So I built my own. https://whitenoiseforsleeping.rest Features: - Mix 6 nature sounds (rain, thunder, fire, wind, stream, birds) - 7 ambient scene backgrounds - Sleep timer with fade-out - Settings auto-saved to localStorage - No signup, no ads, no tracking Tech stack: React + Vite, hosted on Cloudflare Pages. The rain + fire combo works surprisingly well for me - usually fall asleep within 20 minutes now. Would love to hear your feedback or suggestions…
